Salman

is
all
set
to

the
audiences
of
the
small
screen
with
yet
another
season
of
the
hit
reality
show
Bigg
Boss
16.
The
star's
dynamic
presence
will
make
sure
that
you
are
glued
to

he

and

ने
चुप्पी,

1000
करोड़
Although
there
have
been
three
hosts
before
Khan
,
it
was
with
the
entry
of
the
actor
that
the
show
clocked
the
ever
highest
TRPs
for
Colors
channel.
The
Indianised
version
of
the
Dutch
show,
Bigg
Boss,
saw
the
light
of
day
in
2006
with
Arshad
Warsi
being
the
first
ever
anchor.
However,
for
the
next
season
that
aired
in
2008,
Warsi
was
replaced
by
actress
Shilpa
Shetty,
who
at
that
time
had
won
the
US
version
of
the
show,
Big
Brother.
Shilpa
brought
in
good
ratings
with
her
effervescent
smile
and
earnest
hosting.
The
third
season
again
saw
a
fresh
face
as
a
host.
This
time,
megastar
Amitabh
Bachchan,
who
was
riding
high
on
KBC's
fame,
was
roped
in
to
host
the
third
season
of
Bigg
Boss
in
2009.
Known
for
his
iconic
style
of
speaking
and
strong
command
of
the
language,
the
season
remains
unforgettable.
It
was
in
season
4
when
superstar
Salman
Khan
helmed
the
ropes
of
the
dwindling
TRPs
of
the
show,
and
since
then,
there
has
been
no
looking
back.
Khan
hosted
Bigg
Boss
for
the
first
time
in
2010
and,
reportedly,
the
particular
season
raked
in
the
highest
ever
ratings
in
the
history
of
Hindi
GEC.
In
2011,
for
the
5th
season
of
the
show,
actor
Sanjay
Dutt
joined
Khan
as
the
host.
It
remains
the
only
season
that
had
two
hosts.
Despite
several
rumours
claiming
that
Salman
might
quit
the
franchise,
the
actor
has
continuously
hosted
the
show
since
season
4.
As
only
a
few
days
are
left
for
the
drama
to
unfold,
everybody
is
zealously
anticipating
what's
in
store
for
them.
Every
season
brings
in
unique
and
interesting
concepts,
incorporating
fun
games
together
with
a
popular
and
enthralling
ensemble
of
contestants.
This
ensures
an
engaging
watch
for
the
audience.
However,
many
may
perceive
the
show's
viewership
numbers
as
a
result
of
the
presence
of
these
celebrities.
But
that
is
not
the
case.
The
controversial
show
has
been
running
steadfast
for
all
these
years
because
it
has
Salman
Khan
at
the
center
stage.
The
spectrum
of
human
emotions
that
come
out
of
a
single
episode,
individual
ego
clashes,
and
every
day
conflicts
are
what
keeps
viewers' interest
intact.
The
TV
reality
show
indulges
its
audiences
in
voyeurism
and
provides
a
great
premise
for
gossip.
The
show's
major
attraction
still
remains
Salman
Khan.
With
Big
Boss'
cult
following,
the
star's
celebrity
status
is
a
highly
dependable
pick
for
the
channel.
Viewers
would
tune
in
during
the
weekend
just
to
watch
Khan
deliver
justice
to
the
house
inmates
who
caused
a
ruckus
all
week.
Salman
Khan's
way
of
talking
with
the
Bigg
Boss
contestants
raises
the
number
of
viewers
for
the
show.
Apart
from
his
massive
fan
following,
the
superstar
also
has
a
strong
friendship
with
industry
insiders,
whom
he
occasionally
invites
to
the
show
to
spice
things
up.
The
on-stage
camaraderie
between
Khan
and
his
friends,
who
mostly
appear
to
promote
their
upcoming
films,
is
gobbled
up
by
the
audience
as
they
joke,
play
games,
and
interact
with
the
contestants,
which
creates
a
gleeful
viewing
experience.
The
melodrama
and
star-studded
weekend
episodes
easily
amplify
the
traction
for
the
show
and
channel.
But
what
truly
makes
Bigg
Boss
a
tremendous
hit
amongst
the
audience
is
its
right
mix
of
contestants,
Salman
Khan's
mannerisms,
and
the
intimidating
persona
with
which
he
deals
with
the
inmates.
He
maintains
his
composure
throughout,
but
on
several
occasions
he
loses
his
cool
and
slams
those
contestants
who
were
out
of
line.
All
this
masala
adds
up
to
the
dose
of
extra
excitement
on
the
show.
Salman
Khan
has
been
in
showbiz
for
over
20
years
now
and
his
stardom
has
made
him
a
household
name
in
India.
The
kind
of
brand
value
Khan
commands,
makes
him
the
backbone
of
Big
Boss,
which
ensures
the
channel
and
the
associated
brands
grow
together.
As
the
show
is
nearing
its
grand
premiere
on
October
1,
the
promotions
and
daily
news
updates
about
the
show
have
already
fired
up
people's
excitement.
Fans
are
fervently
waiting
to
see
what's
in
store
for
them
this
season.
